Commentaries:
Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown
As is the earthy--namely, Adam.
they . . . that are earthy--All Adam's posterity in their natural state (John 3:6-7).
the heavenly--Christ.
they . . . that are heavenly--His people in their regenerate state (Philippians 3:20-21). As the former precedes the latter state, so the natural bodies precede the spiritual bodies.
